Find My Frustrations
Find My Frustrations
Thought I lost my AirPods (3rd Gen) at work yesterday. Find My kept saying they were last seen there two days ago and when I turned on “Notify when found” it would send me notifications within a minute that they were at my work address. Searched all over waiving my phone around and couldn’t find them.
They were at home. 10 miles away. I was holding them in my hand, fully charged, and Find My was still telling me they were at work.

It seems to me like it only reports location when the case is opened, resulting in issues like this. I had a similar thing happen where Find My said they were at work, but in fact they were at home. Just hadn’t opened the case in several hours.
Frustrating, to be sure.
No it doesn’t just ping Find My when the case is open. That wouldn’t provide anyone much value if you think about it lol.
